@@micah2887 glad to help!
I love your tutorials Mr David!
Thanks for the brushes. I had a play with them this morning and will try them more seriously this afternoon.
A few minutes in the video and I already can’t wait to try out the new brushes! Thank you for all the amazing brushes and your detailed demos! I learned so much from your videos, and pretty much most of the brushes I use are made by you.
Mais ces sketch sont magnifiques 😭 et merci pour ces brushes, je les adore
Thank you very much for the brushes and great explanation how to use them!
Thank you for the first edition of your book, I loved the sketches at the end of the book, It's been so long since I've wanted to tell you.
Will definetely download and try out tomorrow! Very excited to see another brush kit of yours, I started using Krita when I first bought a graphic tablet and didnt draw on my phone anymore, and your work helps me so much! Thank you for your work
I've been searching good brush for free for months now and you are the savior! I always lover your quality videos✨
I downloaded this set and the shape of the eraser is so much simpler to use for me! Big fan of it!
Thanks a lot, for me are the best digital art aproach and help me a lot
Supercool to see you again. Interesting ideas as usual. And is a pleasure to see you painting.
Thank you as always, kinda searching for nice brush to learn more
i love your artstyle, thank you for sharing your brushes, i can't wait to try them out!
Thank you Maddie! Have a good evening in this season :-) I hope you'll have fun testing, modifying and using this brushes.
This is so helpful. I keep trying to find a brush with a tapered or softer edge, or blend things nicer than just with an airbrush, and so often can’t figure out how to use brushes to get the effect I’d like, a lot of people go almost far enough in a tutorial but just say ‘I used a basic brush’ and I wonder ‘so how does it look so good?’ I’d make it streaky if I did that. I’ve loved your painterly storybook style for ages.
For the longest time I've made due with the default brushes but this video inspired me to try to improve my brushwork. Thanks
I like that you showed how different the brushes are compared to some default ones and even combing 3 into 1. Will definitely use your brush pack.
Fantastic brushes! I just recently started using Krita and soon discovered that I need more brush options (textured especially). This bundle you made is perfect and the video really helps to see the full potential of each one. Thank you for sharing. Merci beaucoup!
Thank you! I love some of these new brushes! It's very generous of you to share them freely :) And btw your accent is charming
Thank you very much fam, i love your brushes. I went into Krita because i needed a cheap software to do animatics and such but i wasn't comfortable with the brushes they had, but then i found this and oh man, I love em fam, bless you man T^T
Thank you dear David!
I'm new to Digital art and Krita with very little experience in drawing/painting. I picked up a lot of great tips and your work is an inspiration, your english is very good too :) Thank You
I really have to thank you for sharing these incredible brushes!! They are so fun to use, and I like how you explained each one to help out. I really love using texture brushes like these, and these are probably my favorite ones so far! Thank you again for all the help, I'm definitely going to check out more of your videos and subscribe! Hope you have a good day/night :D
Great brushes! You are my idol in digital art
They are beautiful
thank you so much man you're a great guy
Amazing!!! 🙂, You are a great artist, I love the style you have with pepper & carrot.
It's amazing! Thank you very much.
Thank you for this, these brushes feel so good. You've been so helpful to the Krita community with these videos. Beautiful artworks btw ^^
Thanks!
After switching to Linux, I didn't do any digital art for such a long time because I didn't have my go-to tools anymore and my old tablet's drivers didn't work.
Now I got a new tablet and am getting back into digital art with Krita. It's very different from what I'm used to and this pack really helped me have an easier start. Thank you so much for sharing everything!
J'adore tes dessins et merci pour les pinceaux!
I've been watching your videos for a while now and you are SO INSPIRING! Everything I have seen from you has been super useful and I really think my digital art skills have evolved so fast thanks to you. Many many thanks! PS. I love your accent
Thank you!
Nice. I can't wait to try them out.
Definitely want to try con my webcomic and my illustrations.
Thank you for sharing this!!!
Salut l'ami ! Hâte de découvrir ton nouveau pack de brushes, merci pour la vidéo n'étant pas lecteur de blogs (même si j'ai le tien en favori vu la mine d'or d'infos et ressources Krita que c'est) c'est toujours passionnant de te voir expliquer ton processus de travail

Merci c’est super utile !
Really cool brushes. I really want to start drawing again right now. :D
Great brushes!
Thank you so much for sharing your tools and techniques. I am an aspiring comic creator, and tentative about digital art. Your videos have helped me so much and your work is incredibly inspiring!
Thank you!
They are great, thank you.
Thank you a lots!👍
Thank you so much!!
Hello! Thank you for Brushes
Your brush sets are amazing! Thank you David, they compliment my art style quite well. I didn't like some synthetic and plastic looking brushes and I absolutely agree on the importance of texture and variations. It gives my art more life and organic shape.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing!
David, I want to say thank you so much for your work and what you do.
As a person in tech who has been for free/open source software coming into digital art, I was massively surprised that there was an exact artist that fit my niche. One who was using Linux, krita, and had amazing beautiful art.
I hope to become as good as you some day. Thank you for your work and what you do and these brushes! I will surely try them out. Thank you.
Hey! Thank you for your comment, it's nice to start the last day of the week reading it.
thank you!
Recently started my artist journey at 23, I have not drawn since I was 13. I've been experimenting with sketchy art styles, as I just really gravitate towards them, and I just wanted to say your textured/thick ink brushes are amazing for my art style and I love them!
😻
Just want to say Thank You very much for these brushes. I've tried a couple of other artists brushes and none come close to yours. Especially the sketch pencil brush, the base Krita ones just don't feel right, now I can sketch and like what I'm looking at haha. Great Art and thanks for all the effort!
Thanks for the feedback!
Merci David :) je suis entrain de réaliser un livre illustré uniquement avec Krita, et ces brushes sont les bienvenues.
I started to use krita today after 10 years of using paint tool Sai 😅😅 I realized that none of my drawings were having the effect and textures that I wanted. Thank you so so so so much for teaching and letting these brushes available, I absolutely love them and it inspired me to draw even more!
Thank you very much for the feedback! I hope adopting Krita will not be too complex after a long time in another program, I know it can be difficult to get outside comfort zone (I switched from Photoshop Cs2 and Corel Painter 9.5 on Windows XP to Gimp+Mypaint on Linux back in 2009, then in Krita in 2011). Oh yes, Krita can do wonders with textures and brushes. Check also krita-artists.org/ , the Resources > Brush and Bundle section of the forum is filled with brillant brush pack nowadays. The thread "Rotating light brushtips WIP" is next gen brush thickness creamy simulation. :D
Thanks for sharing
Thank you!! You're brushes are the best on krita right now, and I have Photoshop abr files but krita won't read the those sadly. So I stick to yours.
Thank you david sir❤️
Your sketches are awesome, great content!!! 🔔
Hey David,
There is a "global pressure curve" in the configuration settings. If you use that to accommodate your tablet, you can leave your brushes more universal and comparable. For example, I moved the maximum pressure on that global curve down, so I can hit max pressure comfortably with my tablet, but now I can use the full curve on all of my brushes and other people's brushes work well etc.
Also: Nice eraser trick ! It's probably more than half a decade ago when I first used Krita and instantly wrote a forum entry about the eraser mode being horrible to use. There is no indication and since it's a toggle you can't confirm whether you are erasing or not. Saddens me, because there is definitely something wrong with that. I also bound "r" to "reset brush preset". So now I press "E" to randomly toggle between eraser mode and press "R" to always revert to the brush preset, which also resets the eraser mode. (It also resets size, so I find it very convenient for consistency as well).
Love your vids, cheers.
I sure, I should think about making the preset a bit more with a linar standard pressure curve; so user can adjust them. I painted a bit more this year on the XPPen24Pro and this one had a very different pressure curve than the Wacom; I had to save almost all the preset with a special XP prefixed version xD. Thanks for your nice comment. 5.1 arriving soon (beta in the next days) will have a switch for differenciating the outliner shape on canvas for Eraser and Brush. Finally! I also sometime get lost between eraser mode or not, this will probably help. Have a good end of week!
Aww ginger kitty helper!
Браво!, Давид, так держать)
Thank you
I think Krita is gearing up for v5 if your out here with a new brush pack! MVP
Came here for the learning, stayed for the cat. (Kidding! Love your videos!)
Haha! thank you!
Krita's brushes are the best thing created by humanity ever since the creation of onion bread.
Whaaaat I can not believe you just gave such a powerful update for krita for FREE! are you crazy??? Don't get me wrong, it is amazing and lovely and incredible... it feels like too much! Such a beautiful gift and i'm sure it has helped so much so many artists. I'm honestly moved. Krita is so cool bcs it makes it really afordable for ANYONE to be an artist, but not many creators want to develop new tools precisely because users might not have money and it wouldn't be profitable I guess...? That's okay sure, but it leaves krita in like a secondary position despite all its good features. I'm so happy that you created and shared this 🥺😭 thank you, from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Thank you for the warm feedback!
👍👍👍
I love all your brush sets! They're great at battling my least favorite aspect of digital painting, which is the smoothness/ lack of noise. I've always been more of a painter than a draw-er, so I tend to work tonally to sculpt the shapes out of light/ dark rather than sketch lines as many artists do. Digital programs are easier for line-based artists than for painters (except maybe Corel which always enabled both approaches). However, Krita is now much better than it used to be, for example with enhancements to the Smudge Enginge & color dynamics, now I can smudge or smear many different ways while also adding texture & variation in hue, value, etc. I made a little "modelling" brush set using the smudge engine & it's really a lot like Corel Painter & better than PS for painting now
Thank you for the feedback! True, I switched full time to Krita5 beta not long ago (72h?) and I already made 3 artworks and sketches; the improvement of the color smudge engine is really big. I also noticed something: the very thin brush for details react better. I always had a sort of issue with scaling down brushes to make details and now it works better. All in all, I'm really happy about the way Krita evolves, and I'm glad to read it's a feeling shared.
@@DavidRevoy That's great news! Yes for me the improvements in the last 2-3 years have been huge. I can do all painting in Krita now although sometimes still use PS for final photo edit/ filters/ color grad maps. Probably Krita can also do these final steps but I'm just ignorant of how to use the plug-ins
Merci pour ce partage de brushes. +1 abonnés. Very good English accent 👍😂
Hi so uhm I just downloaded the brushes and I have a few problems,
1) The pressure doesn't work, I've tested out my pen and it works fine with other stuff, just not the bundle. I've also enabled pressure in the 'brush settings' area and it still doesn't work.
2) Most of the brushes are the same thing but just with a different opacity
Should these work fine with Krita 5 beta version I'm currently using?
I'm new to digital art and I am enjoying all your videos. While watching a question occurred to me. When you decide to go back to a drawing in color, how do you make sure your using the same color when you go back to modifying it. Or even use the same color on other plates on the canvas ?
Hi, thank you for your comment! I'm using mostly Ctrl+click while painting (the color picker) to sample the color already around on my canvas and continue with them.
What would be the best way to setup texture of your canvas in Krita as a paper/canvas?
There's no best way, which method is preferred will vary from person to person.
That said, I'll give you two options:
1) With a background layer that's solid white, right click it, go to layer styles, and enable pattern overlay; there you can pick any of the patterns that come with Krita or that you have downloaded and added to the program. Then in the same window you can lower the opacity of the pattern for something more usable.
2) Drag an image of the texture you want to use into the program to load it as a new layer, in which you can make any adjustments you deem necessary and use as your background layer.
The first method is the most flexible, as it has the advantage of always filling the whole layer even if you resize your canvas, and the pattern won't rescale if you resize the image. The second one is easier and doesn't require you to import the texture you want to use as a pattern into the program.
I have recently bought the Huion H640P tablet witch I am loving.
The only problem that I am having is the pen pressure when I am in applications like (Clip art, Krita). The pen pressure works in these applications however it is not smooth.
When I entre the Huion software I can glide the pen over the table and it picks it up do draw a very thin/light line on the testing square in the pen sensitivity settings, However in the application\s (Clip art, Krita) It does not pick up the pen form just gliding across the tablet I have to push considerably harder on the pen for the application to pick it up and transfer it to the canvas. I am not sure if it’s meant to be like this or if there is a calibration issue on Krita’s side that is not working well with the Huion software. It does not feel smooth, it feels lack luster but the Huion software works like a dream.
Please advise on this. As I don’t have any references , and I have not used any other tables before.
Any help or being pointed in the right direction for help would be greatly appreciate.
Hey, sorry but it will be hard for me to help; on Linux the event stack for the driver/device is totally different (I'm using only that at home, no Windows because I refuse their term of services, same for Apple). Please ask this on the Huion forum. If the pressure works in the Huion driver windows and not elsewhere, there is a problem of driver and it is up to the brand who build the tablet to make it work as intended. If they can't help, maybe return the product if it is not too late.
@@DavidRevoy thank you so much I appreciate it a lot. I can get Linux and see if it works there.
@@funnyboss2390 It can be a good idea, I see the tablet is supported by the Digimend driver digimend.github.io/tablets/ (you'll need to install it, then reboot before seing it working)
no bc how do i download it i pressed the link and the direct link but when i press manage recourse in krita it doesnt show the file or wtv
Have you made a video about your brush settings,I'm new to krita and i would like to know what are your settings for the brushes you use.I noticed it says flow and your line quality seems more fluid,but that's because your very skilled but I would appreciate your help. :)
Hey, I'll try to get back to publish videos soon! I'll note your question on my list of ideas for future videos. Right now, I try to finish the next episode of Pepper&Carrot, I posted a making of on the blog; on the last blog post, you'll probably see more content about my setup. www.davidrevoy.com/blog
How do you get your brushes to be on the side like that?
Excuse me, what stabilizer/weighted settings are you comfortable at to make a good and comfortable lineart/sketches?
Hey Clarence, for the stabilizer it is unfortunately related to two factors that changes from users to users: the tablet size, and the display size (and also the style of line-art I guess). Here I often go to the stabilizer, keep only the stabilize sensor option, and put a high value (like 120). It's super too much for my needs, but then I just lower and lower the value until I don't feel the stabilizer constrain. For my actual tablet and monitor, I use a range between 20 and 40 maximum (I can set sometime to 60 for very long curve). I hope you'll find your sweet spot!
Quick question, are there .abr versions of the brushes? I recently switched to csp and would love to use these brushes there
Hi, no I don't distribute this format. It would only transport the brush bitmap tip and none of the settings, so a bit useless. But you can open the bundle file with a software able to open zip and in the 'brush' subfolder, you'll find all the tip in format that Krita can open. Just save the tip as PNG somewhere (or in a format CSP can open) and you'll be able to use them.
@@DavidRevoy Aww, that's a bit of a shame.
Regardless, thanks for the reply :)
How i can to change the paper like this, the color in your paper is diferent, ( my english is poor).
I have tried the basic brush and it doesnt get so transparent, doesnt look like a second skin. The pressure sensitivity is less noticeable than in your video. I am using krita 5, could be that? Thank you for your videos and brushes, I have learnt a lot in your channel.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback. If you have the pressure on the stylus that works, but the effect goes too quickly to maximum, it might be a good idea to change the global pressure curve of Krita in the setting to get more ability to do pressure variation. I wrote an article about it long ago: www.davidrevoy.com/article182/calibrating-wacom-stylus-pressure-on-krita , I hope it will help!
@@DavidRevoy Thanks a lot :)
Thank you for always sharing your brushes for free, as well as the information on how to use them (especially for poor artists like me 〒▽〒). God bless you as always! 🙏🙏🙏
thanks my speack inghlis is to bad but you are ingles y so easy for britanhis
I installed Krita 4.4.7 and the added this brush bundle to it based on the instructions. 10 of the brush icons have an "x" in the corner and they have triangles for the brush "tips." Is there any way to fix this? Like, do I need to install one of your older brush bundles to get the right brush "tips"?
Hi, I just tried 4.4.7 (appimage package, Linux version on Kubuntu 20.04) and couldn't reproduce. It sounds like the version you installed on the system creates a bug. Bunlde creator should pack all dependencies; but I guess many of them are removed if the dependencies are part of default brushes... Be sure you have the default 4.x bundle activated. If it doesn't help, please report it to the developpers. Thanks
@@DavidRevoy It does seem that that was the issue. Not having the Krita 4 default brushes active. Not sure what it was but I was also having the same issue with some of the default Krita 4 brushes that are now working properly after I booted up my system this morning. Thank you for replying and helping me with this issue. I look forward to trying out your brushes.
Oh, one other thing, in regards to this statement on the download page for the brushes: "The brushe bundle doesn't come with a "tag", the brushes blends well with the default brush kit." In 4.4.7, when I created a tag for "Dryad," Krita automatically added all of your brushes to that tag since that tag was added to the brushes themselves. I guess Krita doesn't automatically "import" tags from brush bundles.
@@TriXteRPhillips Oh good guess for the tag creation. Yes, "Dryad" was my code name for this brush pak before I shared it (I often use names of magic spirits from Secret of Mana, hihi). So, the tag was probably blocklisted, and recreating it made it appear back. Interesting. I did stop to try to understand Krita 4 and tag/bunlde/brush issues. It's dozens and dozens and report about it are frozen since years because Krita 5 rewrote everything in this area and there is no point to fix this bugs anymore. Making brush bundle for Krita 4 is defintely rock-n-roll :D
Hello there!
Is it possible that the link for the brushes doesn't work anymore?
Edit: The link works again - maybe there were some server issues last night in Germany :)
is it also compatible with Mac OS ??
I know Krita has something for Mac; and if you have Krita , brushes are just resources for all platforms. But I never owned Apple products; so I can't tell if there is version of their operating system with specifies. Just go to Krita.org and 'Download' tab; you'll probably see something (or via the app download store of your system maybe). Then install the brush bundle. I hope it will work and it will be stable.
I love you
